COLLAR R CUFF 0F CELLULOID OR OTHER PYROXYLINE MATERIAL.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 258,480, dated May 23,1882,

Application filed September 19, 1881. (ModeL) To all whom it mayconcern:

Be it known that I, ALBERT A. SANBORN, of Newark, in the county of Essexand State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement inthe Manufacture of Collars and Cuffs of Celluloid or LikePlasticMaterial with Detachable Tabs, of which the following is aspecification. My invention relates to the manufacture of collars andcuffs of celluloid or other pyroxyline material, either with or withouta lining or interlining of other material, with separately made up tabsfor the button-holes.

In the ordinary way, where the tabs are cut out with the body of thecollar or cuff, and therefore integral with it, I cannot make the shapebetween the tab and front of the collar at such angles as are oftendesirable; and, besides, there is great liability of cracking atthejunction of the tab and collar. These (lifticulties 1 overcome by mycollars or cuffs and tabs being made up separately and then puttogether.

Figure l is a plan; Fig. 2, a detailed view.

In my construction, A is the collar, and B the tab, each made upseparately and then cemented or otherwise united together. In this wayit will be found that besides making a perfect collar, as above stated,one that will stand the wear without cracking at the junction of 0 thetab and collar, I effect a great saving in the cost of manufacture, as Ican use the small clippings for the tabs which otherwise would be lost,and at the price of stock it is a large loss.

I am aware of the patent of S. Haufman, 83,973, but I disclaim thesubject-matter of his patent, as my invention relates wholly to themauufacture'of collars and cuffs of celluloid, 850., which is anentirely separate department 10 of the manufacturing arts.

I claim- 1. The process of manufacturingcollars and cuffs ofcelluloid orother pyroxyline material, consisting in making up the body and tabsepa- 5 rately, and then uniting them with cement, 850., substantiallyas and for the purpose specified.

2. The collars and cuffs of celluloid or other pyroxyline material,constructed substantially as specified, and for the purpose set forth.

ALBERT A. SANBORN.
